RE: "Sorry, seems like you touched on one of my pet subjects :-)" The only thing out of place in your message was the above, in my opinion. Mike, either your assessment of the situation is correct or we both missed something somewhere. My perspective parallels yours, or at least what I know of yours so far. Developers so desperately believe and want their software to be great that what they really want to hear from beta testers is praise and nothing more. That sets the stage for a very strange and strained relationship. I personally know one developer who drops his beta testers if they find much faust with his "baby." Glad you chimed in, —GeM
